Send a file usring SOAP adapter

[Former Member]

Can I send a file using SOAP adapter on the sender side.

reg,

It depends.

Does this file contain a valid xml structure?

If yeah, you can use it to start an outbound integration in XI.

Henrique Pinto,

Yeah the file has valid xml structure.

And what do you mean by outbound integration in XI

reg,

[henrique_pinto]

In this case, you need to develop an application (java, .net, whatever) to read the file and generate a soap web service sending it in the payload. Then, in XI, you'll need to have a message type refering to your file message.

But what is your full requirement again?

Why can't you do file -> XI -> ?? instead of soap -> XI -> ?? ?

Henrique Pinto,

I am trying something out. The scenario I am trying would be a very small but imp part of a bigger business requirement.

I am trying out different options to show the clinet.

<b>1.Started XMLSPY and selected, SOAP>Create new SOAP request>

Now u r asked to browse for the wsdl....DONE. Clicked on OK

Now the request created as an xml file.

2.Go to SOAP> Send SOAP request > there is a new xml file which is the response.

I did not get any errors. I see a file in the target directory.

My problem is where it would really be picking up the data.

WSDL has only referrence to the definition of the message type

(in the definition of O/B interface )</b>

As you have already mentioned that in XI, message type should be refering to file message. If this is the case, how would I incorporate the data in that message.

I hope I am clear.

You want the payload of your Soap request to be saved in a file, is that it?

If that is it, you're trying a simple soap -> xi -> file scenario.

Search for it in the forum and weblogs.

you can copy the input SOAP request XML and paste in a file.

I would like to send a file to receiver file adapter using SOAP adapter.

It is something like SOAP - File scenario.

Naveen,

Do you have a file at sender side?

Is it File --> File scenario or you have some other application at sender for which you want to create file at receiver?

Thanks,

Beena.
